19:122:001 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of
the LORD.
19:122:002 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
19:122:003 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
19:122:004 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the
testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.
19:122:005 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the
house of David.
19:122:006 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love
thee.
19:122:007 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
19:122:008 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace
be within thee.
19:122:009 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
19:123:001 Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the
heavens.
19:123:002 Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their
masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her
mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that
he have mercy upon us.
19:123:003 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are
exceedingly filled with contempt.
19:123:004 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that
are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
19:124:001 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may
Israel say;
19:124:002 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose
up against us:
19:124:003 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was
kindled against us:
19:124:004 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over
our soul:
19:124:005 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
19:124:006 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their
teeth.
19:124:007 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers:
the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
19:124:008 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and
earth.
19:125:001 They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which
cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.
19:125:002 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is
round about his people from henceforth even for ever.
19:125:003 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the
righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto
iniquity.
19:125:004 Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are
upright in their hearts.
19:125:005 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD
shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace
shall be upon Israel.
19:126:001 When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like
them that dream.
